“The closeness of the Calabrian pianist to the world of Lisztian colors is evident from listening to this excellent CD.”

Ingrid Carbone’s latest CD was recently released by Da Vinci Classics with a particular name such as Le sentiment de la nature, to offer music by Franz Liszt which, with refined, clear and passionate sounds, refers to the beauties that nature shows us in all the many declinations. The closeness of the Calabrian pianist to the world of Lisztian colors is evident from listening to this excellent CD. Well-known pieces by the Hungarian composer and virtuoso are proposed such as Les jeux d’eax à la Villa d’Este, La prédication aux oiseaux, Invocation, Funérailles and Vallée d’Obermann. Carbone manages to underline with simplicity the brightest moments of Liszt’s pieces, those with distinct notes, full of pauses and in the same way she makes the most complex situations clear, where the superposition of sound planes and the daring harmonies show us the complex musicality of the Lisztian genius, such as that present in the pieces belonging to the cycle of Harmonies poétiques et religieuses, composed in 1834 and an unsurpassed example of profound interior beauty projected into the world of spirituality. Even the final piece taken from the first cycle of Années de pèlerinage reveals the passage from the simple to the complex Lisztian, in the excellent hands of one of the best Italian pianists. A CD which, due to its refined interpretations, is recommended to all lovers of the best music.
